((well, sparky's infected, but wasn't discernible as an Infected Pokemon, so i kinda assumed that there was a strain which doesn't show the virus...))Dusknoir grabbed the Trainer's head, and twisted. A horrible snap was heard, and the Trainer crumpled to the floor. "Dusknoir!! Get back here, he's gonna get up in a couple of minutes anyways!" Dusknoir Teleported back to my side.

At that moment, the Tangrowth used Extremespeed, going for Mightyena. Knowing that he was doomed if the attack hit, I drew my rapier and immediately hacked at its vines as it passed by. The vine Pokemon howled in pain, and stopped. It turned towards me, then reached its arms out towards me. I laughed, then commanded, "Dusknoir, use ICE BEAM!!" The Tangrowth met with Flamethrower, in an attempt to delay the inevitable. The two beams met with a clash of light; belatedly, the Tangrowth realized that it was burning its own hands with the Fire, and ceased to use the attack; the instant that occurred, Ice Beam hit, and Tangrowth went down.

Miten got up, limping and panting raggedly. I nodded. "Good. Now use Shadow Ball on the Tangrowth!!" Miten growled, and a ball of pure darkness shot out of its mouth, towards the weakened Tangrowth. It closed its eyes, accepting its fate.

But it was not to be. Rhyperior, in a desperate attempt to save its partner, dove in front of the attack; its thick hide absorbed the ball. It grabbed Tangrowth, hauling the injured Pokemon to its feet. The Trainer got up, slowly. "You're gonna pay for that...." he growled. I grinned. "Bring it on, you stupid piece of crap. But first, turn around..." He did so.

Dusknoir towered over him, Miten at his side. He never stood a chance; between the Crunches and elemental Attacks, he went down in a bloody mess. Rhyperior and Tangrowth were powerless to stop him. As soon as they were done with the unlucky minion, the two Teams turned back to each other, ready to resume the conflict.((sorry for all the gore, but it fits, considering where Axel's at emotionally right now))

The trainer threw his hand forward and the Pokemon charged towards me. "Haunter use Hypnosis." Haunter flicked out his hands and started to sway them back and forth.

The Pokemon closed their eyes for a moment before they shrugged off the attack and resumed their charge. "Impossible," I breathed, "they just negated my Hypnosis attack. Seviper, use Haze." Seviper opened her mouth emitted a black smoke. The two infected stopped in searched for my pokemon.

"Screech." A high pitch scream echoed towards the two Pokemon. They shook their heads in pain. "Dark Pulse Haunter. Aim for Hypno." Haunter pushed out his palms and waves of darkness shot out. It hit the Hypno head on. It cringed a little and stayed down for a moment, but it managed to get up. The Sharpedo launched a Flamethrower at Seviper but she managed to dodge it.

"Seviper use Sludge Bomb on Sharpedo." She opened her mouth and a blast of pure poison fired towards the shark Pokemon. It countered with Gust attack. The violent wind spun Seviper around for a moment before she regained her position.

((The Pokemon are indeed infected but, like Rex said, its a strand that is invisible to the eye. The Pokemon and trainers are immune to any stat changing attack, e.g. Hypnosis, Thunder Wave ,etc.))

Deprived of its original target, the Ninjask shrieked angrily and flew at Lucario in what loooked like an attempt to Brave Bird the Steel Jackal, which held its ground resolutely. "Ice cube." Cassie ordered coldly. There was an answering coo from the minature hailstorm, and a sudden blast of ice emerged, striking the Ninjask dead on and freezing it into a solid block of ice. Lucario jumped aside casually as the large ice cube crashed into the wall, shattering on impact, the shards tearing into the Ninjask's fragile wing membranes and leaving them in ragged threads.

"Punt."

Lucario snatched up the stunned, half-frozen Ninjask, took aim, and dropkicked the Bug type into the oncoming Vigoroth, hurling it back and away from Froslass. With a faint buzz, the Ninjask fainted, leaving Lucario and Froslass to face a now -very- angry Vigoroth.

As the hall turned dark, Darkrai appeared alongside the more freaked out than frightened Pikachu. Apparently Jack and it were friends, so Sparky had no complaints there.

Following Jack's suggestion, Sparky unleashed a few more bolts of lightning into the pokemon's path. Lickilicky almost tripped, hopping to a balance on one foot, while Gastrodon was almost down for the count, moving slower than usual.

((You can finish them off.))

---

"Espeon?" Silver turned to face her in the distance. Silver, Leo and the psychic pokemon were atop of the island

"Move!" Cassie snapped as the Vigoroth hurled itself at the Froslass, claws glowing purple as it lashed out in a Shadow Claw-- Froslass evaded, but was still clipped by the blow, crying out in pain as her Trainer, in an astonishing show of agility, actually leaped to catch the Pokemon, voice gentle. "Princess, you okay?"

Froslass cooed softly in response, but the noise was pained. "We'll get you fixed up in no time once this is over. Cari, I never thought I'd tell you this, but kill that thing."

Lucario lowered his ears and growled, leaping across the floor to catch the Vigoroth in the jaw with a flying kick, hurling the Normal-type back as it yelped under the flurry of punches and kicks the Lucario was bestowing, finally going limp.

Cassie turned and gave the trainer a cold stare. "NOBODY hurts my Pokemon and gets away with it."

Hydro Pump, Hyper Beam, Flamthrower, Earthquake, Shadow Ball... it was mind-numbing to watch the three Pokemon throw down. Flashes of light, roars of pain... it was an assault on the sense.

Trying to instill some order to the battle, I called to Dusknoir and Miten. "Alright guys, time to end this! Dusknoir, use Hydro Pump! Miten, cover him with Protect!" Miten leaped in front and brought up a glimmering shield, and began running, Dusknoir right behind him. A stream of water came from around the shield, blasting the large Rock/Ground type to the floor. I grinned evilly. "Excellent. Now finish it." Dusknoir pumped stream after stream of water into the Infected Pokemon, eventually to the point of irreversable defeat. The two turned back to Tangrowth, and by substituting Flamethrower for Hydro Pump, managed to finish Tangrowth in the same manner.

The rapier clattered to the floor. For some strange reason, I was exhausted; a moment before, I had been filled with hatred and anger. Now, there was nothing; no energizing rush of emotion to keep me going. I fell to my knees, unable to stand for the sudden weakness that flooded my body. What am I doing?? Killing Pokemon for revenge? This isn't what I set out to do! All of this... it's wrong... Panting, I got up on my feet and leaned against the wall. Dusknoir and Miten came over. *panting* "H....hey guys. You... fought really well. But from now on, don't let me get carried away like that. Ever." The two Pokemon both nodded solemnly. "O...okay. Dusknoir, use Recover. Miten, I've got some Potions in my bag still..." I set about giving my Pokemon medical attention, while the others battled all around me. Unnoticed, the elevator rose to another floor....

"I know how I want to finish them." I hissed. I called Magnus out. "Magnus, Use Fire Blast, and finish them." He nodded, and raised one arm, concentrating fiercely. The flames around him grew white hot. "Look away or shield your eyes." I commanded to Sparky and Darkrai. Darkrai raised one hand to face and shielded his eyes. I looked away, just as Magnus let it loose with a massive Fire blast. It hit the trainer and his two pokemon simultaneously. I counted to five, and looked back slowly. The trainer's two pokemon were nothing but ashes. I recalled Magnus. My eyes burned with hate. He muttered an oath before drawing a knife and charging towards me. I pulled out my gun, pointed it at the trainer, and pulled the trigger. the sound of the shot echoed around the room, a sharp crack. The man stopped, falling down in front of me feet. I holstered my gun, and fell onto my knees. Ashes, thats all I felt. All the anger drained away, leaving only sadness. "Every time you kill, you lose a part of yourself." I muttered sadly to the world around me, not heeding anything around me.

((Why is every single character in this roleplay so melodramatic and murderous? The trainers weren't even armed and you guys just killed them anyway. And seriously, to ashes? Power play much? Lol. I'll wait for Red to continue before posting.))

((My character's not that melodramatic, just apathetic. He kinda has to be murderous though, since he's one of the few that can actually kill the infected. Psycho just went way over the top on that one.))

The Hypno began glowing yellow as it started to charge electricity. "Poison Tail Seviper." Seviper slithered quickly towards the Hypno, tail blade dripping poison. She struck out at the same time the Hypno unleashed a Thunderpunch. The two attacks collided, but Seviper was thrown back.

"Are you okay?" Seviper nodded. "Alright, Haunter use Curse." Haunters' eyes went black for a second before a bright flash appeared around Sharpedo. An invisible force began to torment the Pokemon. "Finish it with Sludge Bomb Seviper." She reared back and launched a nasty Sludge Bomb onto the Pokemon, forcing it to go down.

"Haunter use Dark Pulse and Seviper, use Nigh Slash." My two Pokemon unleashed their attacks on the Hypno. It tried to defend itself with Protect, but the two attacks at once broke through. It went down as well. The trainer looked up, his eyes grayed over. "We do not accept defeat. We are closer to becoming you, Red."

The trainer that was shot got up, the bullet falling from the closing hole. "We must go away. But we will be back. We are everywhere here." The remaining trainers jumped from their spots and met with the one in the center of the room. They turned for a moment then vanished. "It seems Issac is closer than I thought." I walked over to the others, "Is everyone okay?"-----------------------------Issac sat in his chair, stroking his beard. "It seems that Red is just as strong as he was in the past. This will be one of the greatest tests that I have ever constructed, but his friends will be a nuisance." He looked at his assistant researcher, "Separate them."

The assistant nodded. He touched the control panel. "It has been engaged sir."

Issac nodded, "Excellent. Now let's see how the mortals handle their situation without any help."

I got up, done tending Miten. Walking over to Red, I said, "Yeah, we're good over here." I looked around. "Huh, we actually beat them... Uh, shouldn't we get moving, guys?" I looked expectantly at the others.

"We're good." Cassie fished out a few Sitrus Berries and handed them to Froslass, the Ghost type eating them eagerly, the marks from the Vigoroth's claws fading as Lucario nuzzled his teammate and trainer gently.

I couldn't let the battle rage on much longer. The infected Pokemon were to strong and my Pokemon couldn't hold out much longer, they were starting to feel the battle. They had long battles before, but those were against Pokemon of their own caliber and not against Pokemon of much higher power. I looked at the trainer, though he had a cold laugh I could tell that he would care for his Pokemon at least, but I couldn't go on I didn't want to hurt his Pokemon I just couldn't kill them. I called out orders to my Pokemon as did the other trainer, it was a brutal battle. Powerful attacks were being launched from both sides.

"Your reputation precedes you Massimo, yes I see the look on your face, I was a huge fan of yours when you were a battler."

"I don't care if you were a fan, I will win!" I called Houndoom and Yanma over to my side. Houndoom just bounced back from missing a Thunder Fang attack and Yanma got out of an aerial battle with Butterfree.

The orders were called by the other trainer, I tried to give my Pokemon an order but it was no use. Yanma and Houndoom were tired and they were hit extremely hard. Houndoom barely managed to get to her feet and Yanma was just managing to stay airborn. I have to end this battle here and now. "Yanma Air Slash on Butterfree Houndoom Hyper Beam on that Beedrill!" Yanma sent a rippling current through the air towards the Butterfree and Houndoom sent out an orange beam of energy aimed right for the Beedrill. The other trainer called his Butterfree to use a Fire Blast attack, and another Mega Punch from the Beedrill. The Fire Blast hit the Air Slash dead on, causing a massive heat wave sending a portion of Yanma's attack right back at him, but mixed in with some fire. With the same thing happening to Butterfree. It was a brutal attack, Yanma couldn't hold on to hit and he fainted. Butterfree managed to stay conscious but was clearly evident that it couldn't go on. Meanwhile Bedrill was Mega Punching right through the Hyper Beam. Houndoom was giving it all she had, but the power of the infected Pokemon was too much. When Beedrill got to the apex of the beam there was a massive kickback from the attack. The force was so strong it sent Houndoom and Bedrill flying. Knocking out the Beedrill and hurting Houndoom. There we were standing in front of each other both with seriously injured Pokemon.. The battle was drawing to a close, just as everyone else's. I called Houndoom to use one last Flamethrower, and the other trainer called his Butterfree to use a Focus Blast. Both Pokemon were so weak that using their attacks caused them to faint. We both called back our Pookemon.

"It was a nice battle, and I will battle you again one day, and this time you won't live through it."

With that the other trainer ran off, presumably right back to Isaac. Everyone was finished with their battle. "It was a brutal battle, both my Pokemon fainted in the battle." I need to tend to their wounds, they are my top priority. Still that other trainer. The other trainer ran off, I wanted to know what his misguided ideals were. I wondered if Isaac had corrupted his mind, or if that other trainer just wanted to battle me so badly he traded his morals to someone evil. I had to go save him.

As the party returned and recovered their pokemon, Sparky walked over to look up at Red. They were going to move out soon. Leo and Silver were waiting up ahead. She just knew it.

---

Leo sighed, gazing up at Crystal's lifeless body behind the glass, "...Well, Crystal, I guess I'll wait for them here... I'll follow Isaac's stupid orders for now. Everyone's gonna be in for a big surprise..." he chuckled to himself a bit, grinning upward, "I hope they won't hate me for this. Oh well, I guess it doesn't matter much."

((Sorry bout that. The music I play influences my choices. I must have been playing one of my metal bands.))

"I am ready to go." I called somewhat shakily, since I still felt the guilt of killing that man, but I was ready to fight on.... for now. I got up and looked around for Darkrai. "Amazing." I murmured. "Its like he was never there."

Cassie reached out and petted Sparky's ears softly as she recalled Lucario and Froslass to let them rest for now. "It's been a pleasure getting to know you, little lady." she murmured. "I promise I will try to protect Leo if I can... but Isaac, I have a bone to pick with him."

We all piled into the elevator. I looked at the buttons, there were four different floors, including an underground one. I hit the third floor that was titled lab. Music began playing softly from the speakers as the elevator ascended the stories.

We arrived at the desired floor and stepped off into a white room lined with glass chambers filled with green liquid. My head started to tinge a bit in the back, like my memory was coming back. I knew this place, but I don't know what happened. I walked closer and looked into one of the tanks. A young floated in it, looking slightly similar to me. The chamber next to him contained a Leafeon. "This place must be destroyed. Issac has no right to create life."

I turned around to the group then noticed Leo standing in front of one of the chambers. "Leo, why are you here?" I released my Vaporeon and put my hand on my blade, ready for anything to come.-----------------------------------------Issac smiled widely as Red and the group walked into the processing lab. "Everything is going according to plan." He turned to his assistant, "Make sure that Silver is prepared for the upcoming battle."

The assistant nodded and walked off. Issac reclined a little in his chair and smirked. "Fifty three years of work is finally coming to the end of its trial period. Time for a full run."-------------------------------------------The assistant walked down the corridor before turning into an empty closet. He touched a small button on his arm and an image of an older man appeared. "They made it to the main lab. Red noticed our project." (plot twist!?)

The man spoke up, "Did he destroy it?"

"No but it looks like they may after the final battle has ended. I'm on my way to prep Silver for his battle with Red. Issac still has no clue about our intentions."

"Wonderful. Everything will fall into place. Be sure to transport the subjects before you make your escape. The submarine will be waiting by the docks. We've put too much time and money into this project for the old man to ruin it all."

"Understood, Agent Black Arrow out." Black Arrow turned off his communicator and went back into the hall, heading towards Silver. He reached an elevator and took it to the top floor, the roof. When he arrived the roof was nothing more than the top of Iron Island. Silver was standing close by and he approached him. "Issac sent me to prep you for the battle to come with Red. You will have to fight him with your true form if you wish to defeat him."

((Ok, so Red is going to get separated from the group and you guys will end up doing something else that I have planned. But pretty much Red is going to battle Silver by himself, for the most part. Crunchy you can do your thing and all that. It'll make a nice climax point.))-------------------------

Isaac. The man that we were trying to stop. I was finally in the same room as the man, whom I have only gotten a brief glance into his mind. Frankly it made me nervous, and that is quite an accomplishment. I whipped out my two Balisongs, and called out Bayleef. "Ok Isaac I have two questions for you" demand was in my voice, which implied that he didn't have a choice in the matter of answering them. "One what did you do to the trainer that battled me earlier to make him the way he is? Two have we battled before?" Time for some answers, and I wasn't afraid to do what I had to do to get them out of him. I know that this isn't my usual style, but I cannot help it. I must find out these answers, I must save that other trainer from the dark path he has chosen.

((Sorry taji but Issac isn't in the same room as us. He's still in the surveillance room watching us. I should of made that clearer but I completely spaced on some of that stuff haha. It's just Leo for the moment.))

Sparky's eyes lit up as she finally saw Leo. She ran to him with tears in her eyes as she jumped into his embracing arms. Leo just managed to turn as he caught her, laughing as he spun her around in the air.

"Haha, Sparky! I've missed you!" They laughed together as Sparky nuzzled into his chest. Suddenly, Leo frowned as Red spoke. He turned to them, placing Sparky to the floor, "Thanks, for taking good care of Sparky. ...But I'm afraid I'm gonna have to stop you guys here.

Cassie frowned, thinking back to what Pokemon Leo had released the last time he had shown her his team. Togekiss, Donphan, Typhlosion, Sparky, Scizor, Snorlax... Dari is in danger from that Donphan, and I dare not let out Princess or Cari because of the Typhlosion... Guess it's you, old buddy.

She hefted the Net Ball in her hand, lowering her head for a moment. "I don't want to do this, Leo..." She closed her eyes, then pressed the button on the Pokeball, releasing her Swampert in a flash of red light. Skipper tilted his head when he saw Leo facing them, looking at his Trainer with a questioning grumble-- Cassie patted his broad shoulder, speaking softly to the Water-type.

"Trust me, Skip. Trust me, and fight like our lives depend on it, because they -do-."

Skipper grumbled again, touching her leg with a big paw, trusting his Trainer to do the right thing and knowing she would protect him at risk to herself if the need arose.

'"Hmmmmm........" I muttered. "Who to use? I should be fair and not use Darkrai, so that leaves either Kassie or Magnus." I pulled out Kassie. She appeared. "This is one fight we can't lose." I muttered to Kassie. "Fight hard." Kassie nodded. I looked at the others. Kassie had already pulled her Swampart. "If we don't make it through this, It was a pleasure traveling and fighting along side you." I murmured to Cassie.

Leo and Sparky were going to fight us. It wasn't surprising, but it was still a blow emotionally. I sighed, then got ready to fight.

"All right, Leo, if you want to fight, let's get to it." I turned to Dusknoir. "You are free now. Red and I... I am especially glad to have had you as a member of my team. Go, and be free." The Pokemon that was purple due to its condition slowly shook its head. Dusknoir came over, and put his hand on my shoulder. I took it as a sign that he was with us to the end. I nodded. "All right, then. But Miten and I will fight this battle. Help out anybody that needs it." He nodded.

I brought out Miten. I looked him in the eyes. "This could be our last battle together, buddy. Let's make it a good one." Miten barked in affirmation. "Then let's do this." We looked towards Leo, ready to fight for our lives.((dibs on Snorlax))
